Judge Walker just lifted the stay on his Prop. 8 decision. Marriages are now legal in California again -- and will start soon. Couples have been lining up in San Francisco and West Hollywood.

UPDATE: Looks like marriages won't begin now:

That judgment shall be STAYED until August 18, 2010 at 5 PM PDT at which time defendants and all persons under their control or supervision shall cease to apply or enforce Proposition 8.
The delay provides an opportunity for the Prop. 8 supporters to seek a stay from the Ninth Circuit. Unclear if that will happen. Absent a stay from that body, marriages can begin on August 18, 2010 at 5:00 PM PDT.

Here's the Judge's order:
